Doc Opera

Now in its 41st year, Doc Opera is an annual variety show written, directed, and performed entirely by medical students at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine, as well as a few friends from other health care professions and some brave faculty. The performance is comprised of skits, musical performances, and parodied songs and dances about medicine, medical school, and the medical community. Over 250 students participated in the 2025 show, with thousands raised for our student-run clinics. 

Doc Opera is a non-profit organization that relies on area businesses to help us defray the costs of production and to contribute to the annual donation we make to our free student-run clinics. We are grateful for the donations and support we have received from many diverse businesses in various neighborhoods throughout the Cleveland area.
